Relaxer Day Results: Length Check…

After a long exhausting
day with relaxing your hair, doing a length check is one of the most rewarding part of the process. We all want to know what progress we have made after stretching our relaxer. If you
haven’t seen my relaxer results go on and check it out here. Even though I deep conditioned my hair weekly during
this stretch, my ends were terribly affected from a previous stretch and since I barely trimmed last
relaxer touch up, a trim was necessary this time around.

The pic above was taken
post trim and my ends and hair felt and looked better. Let’s take a look of how
my hair looked after flat ironing my hair the following day below. You can clearly
see, my see through ends needed to go.

I opted to use the feye
method to trim my hair plus my hair still has the U shape from my
professional trim done last April and this method keeps that shape.

I pulled the scrunchie
downwards to get a better understanding of how much I wanted to trim. I'm by no way scissors happy but I bought a new one recently and needed to test it out. After
trimming off an inch of my ends, I pulled each section of my hair in a horizontal
direction and trimmed to even out my ends. That’s how my stylist trimmed my
hair back in April.

Aftertrimming, this is
what my hair looks like below.It was
interesting to see my hair looked the very same length as my pre trim length
(scroll up and see) which is nothing but crazy.I also noticed my hair looks thicker as my back is completed filled in
from my shoulder to my bra.

It looks like I’m still
hovering over my bra but not completed covering it with my hair. I asked my
husband to trim some more with my hair combed back but he doesn’t like trimming
my hair and tells me to go to a stylist.

You can see my bone
straight ends in my ponytail but my strands are not split, so I’m leaving them
and trimming off and inch or two every relaxer touch up to get rid of them. The
angle of the photos makes my hair look thin but it really isn't.

After mymajor cut last
April I slacked on my regimen and you can see thinning in my June 2015 relaxer
update. My hair suffered some more as
seen in my October relaxer update.
Thankfully you can see the power of weekly deep conditioning and taking
care of my hair. My hair seems to be coming back to life.

I'm obsessed with the colour of your hair, love it... Another successful relaxer day and your hair has grown so much... I too have bone staright ends to get rid of but like you I will trim an inch or two at a time as the ends are not unhealthy.

I love how full your hemline is looking now. The trim was necessary, indeed. I have a problem with dry ends that don't curl up, so I trim whenever that happens. I don't worry much about length anymore. I love your hair color.

Your hair is getting healthier each time you do a reveal. My husband refuses to trim my hair too. Maybe it's a guy thing. I'm pretty sure they don't want to mess something up and have us blame them. I use the Feye's method also. You look more like mid-back b/c your bra looks to be worn low.
